Nature heals

Hippocrates (460-370 B.C.): "Nature heals sickness."

Paracelsus (1493-1541 A.D.): "All that man needs for health and healing has been provided by God in nature and the challenge of science is to find it."

Article in newspaper Ethnos (14/12/2010): "A pill for the prevention and cure of first stage colds and flu has been prepared as a result of the cooperation between the Medical School and the Biology department at the University of Crete, the Union of Agricultural Cooperatives of Rethymno and a known pharmaceutical industry. The preparation is based on three aromatic herbs and olive oil. An approval by the National Organization for Medicines has been requested, a patent application has been submitted and the new pill could enter the market of the EU in year 2011."

For people who are familiar with alternative therapies, this news is no surprise at all. I am really eager to learn what herbs are used for the production of this pill.
